Say Hello To My Leetle Friend

Bang, bang, shoot! Shoot as in camera!

Hello, Dear Ones! I'm so excited to tell you I have a new little friend! Mr. Precious bought me a new camera that will be forever attached to my dainty fingers! Isn't she pretty? She's a Canon Rebel T3i. My friend Brenda at Cozy Little House helped me decide! I wanted easy and pretty and she said these little Rebels were the way to go!

Now I have a little pink point and shoot ~ an Olympus FE-340 and she's so cute and has worked so hard for me. Dear Ones, you may not realize, but I try so hard to take good snaps. I work and struggle with lighting (my house is rather dark inside) and I do use Photoscape to help a bit. But my little Olympus just couldn't do any more than she was doing. I'll keep her and let Mr. Precious use her if he can handle the pink! ;)

So I've had my new Rebel, that I've named Reba, less than 24 hours and I've been snapping my tiny heart out! I'm having a ball and loving the results and just wanted to show you some of my new snaps with Reba!

Went out into the back yard and snapped some plants. I hope you'll enjoy these...

Now it's been so hard for me to snap glass. Now look at these...

Good morning sunshine...I'm loving this!

I think I'll even be playing my little Note Songs for you clearer and sharper! :)

And even my favorite brown eyed girl, Chloe Dawn sat still long enough for a snap!!I'm so happy with the results I'm getting from this marvelous little camera. I have some snap heroes out there ~ I've mentioned Brenda from Cozy Little House, Pat from Back Porch Musings and Anne from Fiona and Twig. There are many more of you who can snap a blue streak and I've admired you all for some time. Now maybe I can snap a little better too and someone will like my tiny snaps!
Did I tell you I was excited!!! :)

You lucky girl, you! I'm jealous...but I know we are not to covet....so I repent!I would love one of those but then I would have to learn to use it and read all those instructions. lolShe's a beauty and I know you will be best of friends!

Oh, now look what you've gone and done! You've made me anxious to upgrade my camera, too. I've been thinking about a Canon and your gorgeous photos have almost sent me over the moon! They are wonderful - can't wait to see more.~Adrienne~

Can you see my complexion changing??? Can you??? I am turning all GREEN with envy over here:):):) I LOOOOVE your new camera and was just talking yesterday with Yvonne at Stonegable about a new camera and taking pictures for our blogs!!!! I think this is what she has too! I am going to beg and plead for a new one for Mother's day!!!!!!!!! Your pics (snaps) turned out GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What fun you will ahve! XO, Pinky

I have a Canon Rebel EOS and just love it also, sweetpea. I think they are the best cameras for the money. It's funny but just this morning I was thinking of the best way to photograph glass and then I come here and read your blog. Okay, did you use a flash with it or not? You're right; the photos are beautiful!!!xoxo,Connie

Oh, how lucky you are, Shelia!! I would love to have a new camera, but I have little if no patience with manuals!! You took some beautiful pictures...I love the plants and flowers and the ones of your glass pretties are clear as a bell!! Have fun with your new BFF!!

Congratulations on your new camera! You are going to love taking pics with it and you already have taken some great ones. They are so much better than a point and shoot for more serious photography. Have fun!

Hi Shelia, You will LOVE this camera. It makes you feel like a pro!! :) I have the same one and just can't live with out it... I still take my little camera when I travel... But I never love my pics as much. It was the best blogging investment that I have made!

Great camera and great subjects! Your dog is cute. By the way, one of my favorite movies is "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane." So many times in life I can relate things to that movie. A classic.Give your little doggie a big hug for me!Lorraine

Oh my word Pickle!!!! I want one of those....your pics are amazing...like you I have to struggle to get a good pic with my old camera...this is just amazing...can you let me know what model # and all yours is...you have sold me on this girl....love ya sweetie....Picket

Oh sorry...never mind sweetie...I was so busy eyeballing the pics that I overlooked the details of the camera but I went back and reread and I see where you posted everything...thanks girl...I love this!!!!

Oh Shelia, I'm jealous of your new toy and, of course, your shiny piano!! I am needing a camera really badly, but it's going to have to wait! The wedding was fabulous, and we had a lot of fun playing it together. Now Easter...
